to be perfectly honest cena's retirement didn't have that much of an impact for two reasons: 1. He has already left the biz for extended periods of time before to make movies, We know what it's like without him. and 2. Gunther has already beaten Goldberg who is canonicaly stronger that John so winning this isn't that impressive. Thanks for reading my blog.
Gunther tapping out Cena was the correct choice, and probably the best choice. And yes, the fans reaction to Triple H was annoying.
But that said, I'm not mad at them. The crowd booing is the end result of HHH spending 3+ years inserting himself into every big moment and constantly telling the audience that he's the master and commander of everything that happens in WWE. They literally made a Netflix series with that message as the focal point.
So when he inserts himself yet again, this time after an unhappy ending, of course the crowd will shit on him.
When Brock Lesnar ended Undertaker's streak, they didn't chant "fuck you, Vince." They chanted "fuck you, Lesnar" the next night on Raw. Everyone still knew it was a "work" then, too. But Vince wasn't constantly telling the audience "everything that happens in the ring is something I brilliantly created."
Had HHH stayed his ass backstage, the crowd would’ve settled down and cheered. His appearance gave them a valve in which to release their displeasure.
He needs to stop inserting himself into every single big moment. He didn’t need to be there.
